| | CATHOLIC ENCYCLOPEDIA: Egypt |
 | | The reverses of Necho and Apries in Asia did not affect the prosperity of Egypt during the reign of these two pharaohs, any more than did the rivalry of one of his officials, Amasis, whom Apries had sent to suppress a mutiny of the native troops, and who was proclaimed king by them. | | | This brilliant campaign stayed the advance of the immigrants who now came straggling along, settling here and there as vassals of Egypt, in Syria and in Palestine, where, later, one of their tribes, the Peleset, or Philistines, offered a stubborn resistance to the invasion of the Hebrews. | | | A similar attempt in favour of Re and his ennead was perhaps made by the Memphite kings. |

| | Indeed, Rowlandson observes that "tradition evidently counted for much in the tenure of public land; villagers felt that the basilike ge of their village was 'theirs', and resented any attempt to deprive them of access to resources which had traditionally been at their disposal" (86-7). | | | Rowlandson's view is rather that land would have been reassessed and put out for tenancy -- either by choice or compulsion -- as it became vacant. | | | This is not, of course, her own idea but has been variously argued, and she bases her observations on the work of A.K. Bowman and D. Rathbone. |

| | Nome (Egypt) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
| | Lower Egypt, from the Old Kingdom capital Memphis to the Mediterranean Sea, comprised 20 nomes. | | | When the central government was weaker, however – such as during foreign invasions or civil wars – individual nomes would assert themselves and establish hereditary lines of succession. | | | In addition, the Greeks were fascinated with Egypt, and left many historical records of the country. |
